The Creation

Having presented directions of development in Translation Studies, based on themes of subsequent European Society for Translation Studies Congresses; as well as the chronology of changes and turns in translation research, the author presents the Action Research in Translation Studies (ARTS) model, which combines functionalist theories in TS with translation practice. ARTS aims at using theoretical cogitation in TS in order to introduce specific translation activities. The application of the ARTS model is illustrated here by the analysis of the Katzenjammer Kids translation unit. The conclusions regard the translator’s decision process and the influence of cultural conditioning on the creation of meaning in translation.

Abstract Since the beginnings of translation studies, applied translation research has set out to address the practices, processes and products of translation in both work and education. The contexts in which these are realized are embedded in broader sociotechnical systems as well as in the specific settings where translation is performed. Although the situated nature of professional translation is uncontroversial and suggests that it should be investigated in situ, workplace-based, organization-oriented research in applied translation studies is a relatively recent and still under-developed phenomenon. The nascent interest in it is partly due to advances in research tools and practices, but mostly to an emerging but still largely implicit transdisciplinary research framework. This article argues that the actual and potential impact of transdisciplinarity should frame translation research more explicitly. It considers how the growing diversification of professional translation and its convergence with other communication professions calls for applied translation studies to adjust to new realities. It explores current developments in professional translation practice, presents a use case of workplace-based research, and concludes with a model of transdisciplinary action research that can serve as a structured framework for investigating and learning from rapidly evolving professional processes and practices in translators’ sociotechnical workplaces.

Theoretical Conceptualization

Action research is a participatory approach that is used in an array of contexts. From its first proposition it comprises four core principles: participation and collaboration; a constant spiral cycle of self-reflection; knowledge generation; and practice transformation. Praxis and emancipation are two important analytical categories in AR, but are conceptualized differently in the two existing AR traditions. These conceptualizations reveal different AR aims, which lead to either the use of AR as a method (Northern tradition) or as a methodology (Southern tradition). Much depends on the researchers’ interest and worldview. Our objective in this paper is to compare how emancipation and praxis are theorized in both traditions. This discussion intends to add insight into the methodological understanding and utilization of AR.

The problem raised in this research is to improve the ability to write poetry of students with an integrated learning approach in learning Indonesian in class V SDN 1  Sukamenanti Kedaton Bandar Lampung Academic Year 2017 / 2018. This research was conducted because of the reality in the field that the ability to write class poetry V in SDN 1 Sukamenanti is classified as low, it is obtained that data in the basic competence of writing poetry the average value of students is 57.39 The average value obtained by these students in general has not reached the specified KKM, which is 65. Of the 28 students in SD Negeri 1 Sukamenanti Bandar Lampung only 10 or 36% of students achieved mastery. The rest, students can achieve completeness after taking remedial once, twice, or even up to three times. This shows that the ability to write poetry of fifth grade students at SD Negeri 1 Sukamenanti Bandar Lampung is low. For this reason, the most integrated learning approach is used in order to improve the ability to write poetry. To achieve the above research objectives, the authors use the "Classroom Action Research" research method abbreviated as CAR or class action research (CAR). Classroom action research (CAR) is action research carried out by teachers in the classroom. This model uses a spiral system of self-reflection that starts from plans, actions, observations, reflections, and re-planning which is the basis for a problem-solving design. And use an integrated approach in learning. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that an increase in the ability to write poetry of students of SDN 1 Sukamenanti VB class after applying an integrated approach in learning Indonesian this can be seen in the initial conditions of the acquisition of an average value of 57.39 with the highest KM of 3.57%. In the first cycle the average value of 68.68 and the highest KM was 57.14%. In cycle II the average acquisition value is 71.93 and the highest KM is 64.29%, whereas the acquisition value in cycle III is an average of 77.04 and the highest KM in cycle III is 78.57%

Classroom Action Research Training for Aisyiyah PAUD Central Java Teachers to Improve the Quality of Learning delivered by the Principal and Teacher Training of PAUD 'Aisyiyah PWA Central Java, this activity aims to: 1) instill awareness in PAUD 'Aisyiyah teachers on the importance of Classroom Action Research 2) improve skills prepare proposals for Classroom Action Research 3) provide assistance related to Classroom Action Research, 4) train teachers to be able to provide treatment to the subjects studied, so that they experience positive changes. The methods used in this training are presentations, discussions, case studies. This training activity was attended by 142 teachers from PAUD 'Aisyiyah in Central Java. The results of the service are theoretically successful, this can be seen from the enthusiasm of the training participants who actively ask questions about the problems they encounter related to the steps of preparing the CAR proposal, but judging from the practice of preparing the proposal the results have not been satisfactory, because only 15% of participants can prepare a CAR proposal properly. and 33% is considered sufficient, while 52% of participants have not succeeded in compiling a CAR proposal. It is not easy to write CAR, it requires independent effort training from the teacher concerned to solve the problems faced in PBM. In general, PAUD 'Aisyiyah Central Java teachers need further assistance in writing Classroom Action Research.

Abstract The aim of this research is to consider the impact of a Service-Learning module aiming at enhancing social responsibility and citizenship by using art as a medium for learning and reflection. It involves an explicit and designed programme that includes Socratic discussions and self-reflection projects through art. Action research was used as a methodology, ensuring that the whole class and the researcher were involved in the research process. The results of the project demonstrated that art is an effective medium to address sensitive issues because it functions on a symbolic and metaphorical level. Art that uses metaphors involves participants both consciously and sub-consciously and encourages possibilities for a diversity of interpretations.
